G|-----------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------3p2-----------------------------------------|
A|------------3-------3-------------0------------------------|
D|-0--0--3h5-------------5--5--5-3h5-5p3---------------------|
This is the basic riff that repeats through the song but depending on how much
you like to slide could also be played like this:
G|-----------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------3/8\7\3----------------------------------------|
D|-0--0--3h5-------------5--5--5-3/5/7\5\3-------------------|
[Post-Chorus]
This happens 1x at 2:32 and 3:37 and 2x in a row at 4:35. Rhythm is relatively
obvious.
G|-----------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------1--1--1--1-----------------------|
A|--1--1--1--1--3--3--3--3--------------------3--3-----------|
D|--------------------------------------5--5-----------------|
[Outro]
Bit trickier to tell but seems like he's gradually sticking more to the lower notes
and using fewer of them, variations on the original theme, make up what you like:
G|----------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------3-3----------------------------------------|
A|-----------3--------------------------------------------|
D|-0--0--------------5--5--5-3h5-5p3------------------------|
G|----------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------3-3-3--------------------------------------|
